Elections always have consequences. This is especially the case for our potential to address
the climate crisis when some candidates for office accept the science of global warming and it
climate change consequences while others display something between skepticism and outright
rejection of science. From the local to the national level the outcomes from the 2024 general
election will indicate profoundly whether meaningful action is likely.
The Southern Oregon Climate Action Now November General Meeting will focus on an
exploration of what the election results mean for climate action in the near future. Special guest
and notable climate champion State Representative Pam Marsh will offer insight regarding what
the election outcome means for climate action as we approach the 2025 long session.
Additionally, SOCAN co-facilitator. Alan Journet will explore what the results mean for federal
action, Denise Krause will discuss what results mean for the Jackson County Board of
Commissioners and SOCAN co-facilitator Kathy Conway will do likewise for regional city
election results.
The meeting is free and open to the public and will occur from 6:00 – 7:30 on Tuesday
November 26 th at the Medford Public Library, 205 S Central Ave, Medford.
